Enhancing Healthcare: The Role of NHS Evidence in Quality Care (1999-2009)

The NHS Evidence initiative, spanning from 1999 to 2009, has played a crucial role in improving healthcare quality through access to high-quality evidence. Inspired by Sir Muir Gray's belief that "knowledge is the enemy of disease," the program emphasizes the importance of reliable information for healthcare professionals. With user-friendly features for searching clinical databases, including free access to various sources and advanced filtering options, NHS Evidence supports clinicians in decision-making. Discover how evidence informs practice, using examples such as the impact of compression stockings on deep vein thrombosis in travelers.
